A couple of points:
1) Some corrections based on what I hear - the ones I am sure of are in red font.

2) This is most likely a truncated version of the varNam, shortened to meet the time constraints of the competition, I presume. Usually, there are 4 progressively longer caraNasvara sAhityams

Thanks rshankar.

Wow ... thanks a lot Lakshman and Shankar .. I used to play this audio daily and now i have the lyrics to sing too... Many thanks

@Shankar ... Yes Sir. There should be 4 charana swara sahityams. All the links i provided here are from Kerala State School Kalolsavam which is the biggest youth festival in ASIA. There are competitios for many items and for Classical dances, there are items like Bharathanatyam, Kuchipudi, Mohiniyattam, Kerala Nadanam, Ottanthullal, Kathakali and lot more. This will start from school level. The progression is School > Subdistrict > District and finally state level. The rule is, the first prize winner in each level will go to the next level. There are 14 districts in Kerala and in the state level, there will be 14 contestants for each item. But now a days, more than 24 will participate with court order and stay . Time allowed for classical dances are 10 minutes. May be thats why not all the four chanara swara sahityas are included. All the three links i put here (Thodi, Mukhari and Saraswathi) got first prize in state level. The first one was in 2010 and the next two for 2011. I have also participated in State Youth Festival for Bharathanatyam, Kuchipudi and Mohiniyattam in my school days and got A grade. For bharathanatyam i presented Mohana Krishna Moditha Manava in Mohanam and Varanamukhavana Unnai ... in Naatta kurinji. Sorry if you are already aware of the Kerala Kalolsavam. I have high spirits and lot of enthu when i talk about this .. So only i put such a detailed descritpion ...
